In a salad bowl, place cabbage with Belgian endive and radicchio leaves. Add bacon, diced bread and Raclette cubes.

Cabbage can be replaced by very finely sliced beets.
To toast nuts, start by oiling and seasoning them. Place on a cookie sheet and roast in preheated oven at 350 °F / 180 °C for 5 to 8 minutes. Let cool before using.
